Maybe I'm an idiot and this is elementary to everyone but me. Maybe
it's not a function of asterisk. It's driving me nuts.
When I'm on a call and another one comes in for me, in general I *don't*
want to put the current call on hold and pick up; I almost always want
to drop the current call ("Talk to you later. I've got another
call.")
and pick up the other one.
But if I flash, asterisk puts the call on hold. If I hang up and let it
ring, oftentimes by the time a ring or two has gone by the second caller
has been sent to voicemail, and I don't think I can barge on voicemail.
One ring doesn't appear to behave any differently than a flash.
What is the way to do this? Is it an RTFM that I have missed?
Thanks.
B.
